We are given

first equation:


x-3y=4

second equation:


Qx-6y=8

Our second equation will be same as first equation if we multiply 2 in first equation

so, we will multiply 2 in first equation


2*x-2*3y=2*4


2x-6y=8

now, we can see that this equation is same as second equation

so, we can compare both

and we get


Q=2..............Answer
